“Is that so? Then why is he still helping us protect the shelter?”
Yu Jie asked.
He laughed coldly and ignored Yu Jie.
“Stop making excuses for your incompetence. Think about yourself.”
“After this matter is over, I will present a report to my superiors. Think about how to explain the failure of this mission to my superiors.”
Yu Jie knew very well that after this incident was over, the Federation would soon convene an emergency meeting to discuss the incident that had happened today.
Yu Jie could already guess the outcome.
He definitely wouldn’t be able to escape punishment.
As for Fang Heng…
As long as he could prove that Fang Heng had nothing to do with Night Owl or the other anti-federal organization.
To maintain the stability of the server, the Federation would make a huge concession and think of a way to obtain the method to control the Tyrant and Licker from Fang Heng.
As long as Fang Heng’s request was not too excessive, the Federation would not hesitate to agree to share Server 8 with Fang Heng.
Even if Fang Heng was not willing to share, the Federation would not be willing to make an enemy out of Fang Heng. On the contrary, they hoped that Fang Heng could stabilize the situation of Server 8.
Personally, Yu Jie was also very willing to cooperate with Fang Heng.
With powerful combat units such as the Tyrant form and Lickers, the safety of the desert shelter and the lives of innocent people could be guaranteed.
The Federation could also devote more energy to other high-level game worlds.
Such a win-win situation was something that both Yu Jie and the Federation were extremely happy to see.
…
[Hint: You have killed a crystallized form (Tier 4 larva stage). You have obtained 228 survival points. You have obtained Tier 2 evolution crystal*1.]
Seven consecutive hours of battle.
As the players could not fight in the wild at night for long periods, the elite team that assisted Fang Heng in the battle changed batch after batch.
There was only one crystallized worm left!
It was already at the end of its tether.
Corrosive howitzers bombarded the crystallized form one after another. The corrosive solution dissolved a large piece of the crystallized armour, revealing red flesh and blood.
The group of Lickers slashed huge wounds on the corroded flesh and blood.
The blood continued to flow.
Not far behind the battlefield, at a temporary command post, Fang Heng asked Chen Yu beside him, “How many corrosive rocket launchers are left?”
Chen Yu’s eyes were bloodshot, but he could not hide his excitement.
“There are still 12 rounds left.”
“Enough, enough for me to be greedy for another round.”
Fang Heng replied softly, his gaze focused on the Tier 4 crystallized worm that was struggling on its last breath.
“What? Fang Heng, what did you say?”
Chen Yu thought he didn’t hear him clearly, so he turned around and looked at Fang Heng in confusion.
“What do you mean by ‘greedy for another round’?”
He faintly felt a pain in his balls and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
No way? At such a crucial time…
Could it be that Fang Heng was going to start his work again?
Fang Heng was very calm. He took out a small walkie-talkie from his pocket.
“Mo Jiawei, how’s the situation?”
“God, almost there, almost there!”
Chen Yu looked around blankly. He realized that Mo Jiawei, who was around earlier on, had disappeared again.
“I see you. Go, I’ll control the Tyrant to coordinate with you. Be careful.”
“Roger! God, see what I can do!”
Fang Heng put down the walkie-talkie and looked up into the sky.
Chen Yu was dumbfounded. He also looked up into the sky.
In the distance, a helicopter with the logo of the Dark Knights was slowly approaching.
Mo Jiawei poked his head out of the helicopter and looked out.
The helicopter gradually flew low.
Two huge boxes were hanging below it, one blue and one grey.
Chen Yu was puzzled, “Hey, Fang Heng? What are you trying to do? What’s in that box?”
“You’ll know in a moment. For safety’s sake, let the team retreat first.”
Chen Yu had no choice but to turn on the team’s communicator.
“This is Chen Yu, everyone! There’s been a change of plan, everyone retreat! Immediately! Now!”
“Roger! Sir!”
The Federation’s elite teams were extremely efficient. After Tang Chu heard the order, he immediately led the three combat teams to retreat to the temporary command centre.
At this time, the Tier 4 crystallized worm was already in a state of near-death.
It seemed to have felt something as well and struggled to wiggle its body.
A Tyrant took large strides towards the worm from the front.
“Hiss!”
The worm opened its huge mouth again, trying to swallow the Tyrant in one bite.
It was coming!
At this moment, a rope on the helicopter was cut off, and the grey metal box hanging in the air suddenly fell.
The Tyrant form that was charging forward caught the falling metal box and smashed it towards the worm’s huge mouth.
“Chi!”
The worm bit the metal box into pieces!
Tyrant rolled to the ground and smashed the body of the crystallized worm.
“Bang!”
The metal box’s shrapnel scattered in all directions.
Rocks?
The metal box was filled with rocks?
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, his face full of confusion.
“Fang Heng, it’s filled with rocks?”
Fang Heng stared at the Tier 4 worm on the ground.
“Yes, they’re rocks, but they’re not ordinary rocks. They’re raw blue crystal ores.”
“What!?”
Chen Yu was shocked.
On the way here, he had updated himself with some information about the crystallized forms.
Since the information was publicly available, Chen Yu only had a rough idea of the effects of raw blue crystal ores.
He knew that it was a very rare energy source material, and most of the time, it would only be used in the later stages of the game.
“Don’t be nervous, it’s filled with the lowest-level blue crystal ores, the most worthless batch.”
Chen Yu thought to himself, that’s not the main point!
What was the point of using that thing to smash the crystallized worm?
Fang Heng shrugged and explained, “The crystallized worm can only level up by swallowing the blue crystals. Do you understand what I am saying?”
Chen Yu froze on the spot.
He thought to himself, “Understand? Understand my ass! You knew that it would level up after devouring a crystal, yet you still fed the worm with crystals?”
After evolving, wouldn’t a Tier 5 crystallized form be even more difficult to deal with?!
Fang Heng glanced at him and enunciated each word clearly.
“Fatten it up and then kill it.”
As he spoke, Fang Heng shifted his gaze away and looked expectantly at the crystallized worm that had devoured a large amount of blue crystal raw ores.
Killing a Tier 4 mutated creature would at most give him a Tier 2 evolution crystal.
Of course, it was not enough!
Upgrading the Tier 3 space tearing device required high-energy evolution crystals!
A total of three crystals!
That thing could only be dropped by a Tier 5 lifeform!
Apart from that, in theory, killing a Tier 5 creature for the second time in the entire server would also reward him in the form of a skill book!
The enticement was too big, Fang Heng could not help but want to give it a try.
This was currently the best time he could find to kill a Tier 5 mutated creature!
The worm was already on the verge of death. Even if it evolved into a Tier 5 mutant, its condition would not recover significantly in a short period of time.
If he succeeded…
He would gain rewards such as the skill book and the high-energy evolution crystal!
Fang Heng wanted them all!
